My Dad....the biggest neat and clean freak in the WORLD.... To this day I won't let him wash my clothes. Everything always comes out 1)Dingy or 2)The same color.

Newguy - Step away from the machine.....
I am felix from the odd couple, If I see that the clothes need a wash I just do it. My wife has told me to step away from the machine many times. With so many sweaty running things I just well must get them clean. Piles of wet clothes well must be put into washer and well washed.
But alas sometimes things end up in the machine that well should be in another smaller color coordinated load!
Hint: throwing in green scrubby pads and or the rags used spread floor wax with the laundry is not considered good. even if one uses ultimate hot and maximum spin cycle. This even though i've patiently pointed out that the clothes are very sterile afterwards.

My wife did get me back last year by insisting I bring home the crayons from a restaurant for Gabe, and then washing my favorite shirt with the crayons still in the pocket...

Yep newguy put towels in with jeans and a real nice sweatshirt. Oops, wife is really steamed.
That was what I did years ago. And it worked... I am no longer expected to do laundry.
